"while FIGHTING THE FIRE I LOSS IS ABOUT '200o, PARTLY j COVERED BY INSURANf C-THE HOUSEHOLD GOODS SAVED. (From Saturday Dally.) f- The most serious Are which" has occurred In Salem for several months, took place yesterday morning in South Salem at 11:15 o'clock, wth the result I that Mr. A. Prescott's residence. No. 1 Commercial street, was partially de- , siroyeo. it is tne nrst house north of -A J. P. Rogers' residence, on the west i side of Commercial street. The fire broke out In the attic from a I defective flue leadings from- the kitchen, j and had been burning: some time before lit was discovered. Mrs. D. $J Smith, i who was in the front part of the house i at the time, first noticed "smoke at 11:15 o'clock and hearing a noise overhead. I started for the attic. On .opening the attic door, the flames burst out in her ; face, and she realized that the house ; was doomed. Slamming- the door, she hurried over to J, P. Rogers' residence j and turned in a fire alarm. As she i left the bouse he nrfi.'n ttio y.a. end was aTI on fire", "and the flame was already bursting from the roof. The weather was very warm, am if was a j long run. almost a mile, from the en j gTne houHf, but the firemen responded I with alacrity. The hose cart was out In an Instant, and went down OB?n r j rnerc-lal street at a furious rate. '. The ; -nglne followed about 200 yards behind, i but it is a much heavier load, and the horses could not go so fast. In a few minutes the hose" cart arrived on the m rijT- i t uniMgraiion ana ITutKing i connection with the plug In the ten Inch water main at the corner, turned a stream of water pn the now roaring Are. 'By some mistake the fire engine Mopped on the Mill creek bridge, on ; fommercial street, and attempted to get water fronr. the creek. After 'lear lng up !a plank and dropping the suc tion hoe. It was found that It would 4 not reach the water, and Chief John- on wa compelled to order the engine to the top of the hill, where connection was made with the water main, and two large streams of water turned onto the burning building. ' making quick work of quenching the flames. In the meantime, as soon as the alarm had been turned ,in. neighbors liegan to gather, commencing to carry out the urnlture and personal property of the occupants, and In less time than it takes to tell It, the front part of the hou!e upstairs and down, was stripped of Its furnishings. whl'A were all ear rled out of the danger line. Mrs. Smith says the crowd attracted, .by the tire was all very, kind and orderly, handling everything so carefully that even the lamps and vases were not broken. , She missed her gold watch, which wa l.n one of the upstairs rooms and thought someone had pocketed It, but later learned that It had"been pick ed up and left with City Recorder N. J. Judah. Chief of Police Gibson, who waw on the ground, swore In a spe cial officer, ir. 8. Radclifr. to guard the proierty until It could be removed. The fire was difficult to fight without endangering the llves of the firemen. Kilt th hnvr lllr.. V.i .. .t i'hkf Johnson ; expressed himself I as more than pleased with the work of. the crew. When they reached the en gine houe their clothes were drenched and badly torn and soiled. One of the ladders broke while Frank Luce, Fred Kurts and Galbreath were on It, and they were considerably injured" by the fall, although not seriously. No bones were broken. Some of the ladders are getting old and will no tN bear the strain to whk h they are liable to be subjected at any time. WW Ketohum was the first gentle-1 man to reacITthe scene of the fire, and worked very hard to save the furniture. As soon as help arrived, he assisted In earrylng out the piano, handling one end himself, and in ao doing sprained and bruised his ankle very seriously, t He attempted to walk, but nearly fainted wtth the excruciating pain, and a planing carriage took him to his home. Last night some of the swell ing had gone down, but he Is still very lame and sore. Judge Geo. H, Burnett, who la al ways happy when he can be climbing about a burning building and assisting In the rescue of property and lives, and Webster Holmes, and many others, were also early upon the scene and gave much assistance to the work, al though they were thorouhgly drenched. The entire rear end of the house was burned away and the rest of It more or less damaged by the fire and water. . The plaster was soaked from the walls, the windows broken out. etc., so that, although it can be said to be a total iT'JLV " l hard,T worth repairing. Mr. Preseott Mated that the damage could not be satisfactorily repaired and that If he rebuilt at all, he would first tear away the old wreck, and build an -iirriy nrw nouse. The only loss of furniture was In the kitchen, which could not be entered at all, after the fire was discovered. i : ' The loss Is estimated at about 15000, -with some Insurance.' The house was . Insured for S1500. and the contents for ; 11175 in the Continental Fire Insurance Company of New York. - I The house was about thirty-four years old. and has been occupied by 0r. Preseott for the last twenty-nine . years. "When he came to Salem, thirty years ago, he moved Into the Bucking Ham house In the same block, and yes terday after the fire he .commenced moving his belongings Into ths same house again, after an absence of about twenty-nine years. About three-weeks ago he went to Wlnlock. Washington, accompanied by shls wife, where he has extenV-e lum bering Interests, and Mr. and Mrs. D. B. Smith were stopping !n the house uunng nis aosence. He arrived In Sa lem yesterday on the 11 o'clock train. and had not yet reached home when he leemed that It 'was In flames. Mrs, : Prewott Pt larned of her loss on her an H al iu iU city last night. : - " M'BRIDE AT THE HELiC ' ; VANCOUVER, B. C. June S. Politi cal events are moving rapidly here. Following the dramatic sweeping away of -old-time cobwebs by: the Conserva tives in the Introduction of party lines comes the retirement of Joseph Martin from the position of leader of the Lib eral party " That, as no other happen ing could, clears the deck' for a straight fight, Martin has been styled the "bo gle man" of his party by men of his own political faith, but by his action be has shown hlmself"wllling to sink per sonal ambitions and forget quarrels for the good of his "party. ' ' The Mc Bride government has quick ly rot down tb business anticipatory of the general election. Captain Tatlow, the new president of the council, has delivered the budget speech. The com mittee appointed,, to revise the esti mates of the deceased ; Prior govern ment, adopted the proposed expendi ture in toto and added 1170.000. The government Is being run by Pre mier Mc Bride as chief commissioner and Captain Tatlow as president of the council, and will probably be so con tinued until after the elections, when It Is understood the elected Conserva tive members If their: party wins will finally decide whether McBride or Charles Wilson shall lead the party.

SHOW SOME RICH f COLORS. I MEDFORD. Or., June 6. J. A. Whit man and J. D. Hard are now in control of what promises ro be the biggest pla cer mining proposition in Southern Or egon. The property Is located on Steve's Fork of Steamboat Lake, and comprises some 880 acres of mining ground, nearly all of which" prospects rich from "grass roots to bedrock. Some of the prospects obtained are so big that it Is hard to believe they were taken from just a few pans of dirt. The property was purchased from Messrs. Shearer, Lewis, Armstrong and Scott, and the new owners have already been offered an Advance of two and a half times the purchase price. The water supply Is abundant, y v t ' ' ; Whitman and Heard will put twenty men at work at once, and expect to be piping within forty or fifty days. The water supply is sufficient 'to ran the year round, except ' per Raps few weeks in the winter, when the water may freeze In the ditch. Later a three mile ditch will be built to cover the whole property. The location of the property is such that It cannot fail to be almost fabulously rich. The creek heads near the summit of Grayback" mountain, and directly opposite is the ereek which fed the famous American bar on the Klamath, from which thou sands of dollars have been taken, and between the two rises Althouae creek, one of the richest mining districts In Southern Oregon In early days. ; ;y Why this property has not hereto fore been worked Is hard to telU That it was rich bad been known for many years. , However, the country was bard to get - Into and the early miners had good prospects without having to climb mountains almost perpendicular. A party left Medford this morning for the mine to commence construction of the ditch, and more will be sent in from time to time. Machinery has been ordered, and win be on the ground by the time the ditch Is finished. . HOLDING HIGH CARNIVAL r- MANY THOUSANDS WITNESS THE SPORTS AND AMUSEMENTS AT DALLAS. . ; DALLAS. Or., June 5.
